    [Highly rated reviewer]

    This is one of the worst Doctor Who stories of the original series. I found myself squirming with embarrasment it was so bad.

    Rent this at your peril.

  • Most pathetic Doctor Who story ever?

    Rated - 0.5 stars  
    By JohnG79 (9 reviews) , 22 Nov 2012
    Holy mother of god, this is bad. Stultifying bad. The music is like a Casio keyboard gone insane. The story and script are abysmal - you actually end up feeling sorry for all involved, especially Sylvester McCoy who should be a great Doctor but gets lumbered with this embarrassment. If you're a completist like me you'll probably watch this regardless of what anyone says, but - amazingly - it is probably even worse than you imagine!

  • one of the worst Doctor WHO storys ever

    this is the one that stars both Ken Dodd and Bonnie Langford. It is set in a 1950s he-de-hi type holiday camp in South Wales. The story is pretty dreadful - how they managed to stretch it out for 3 episodes??? the music is intrusive and dreadful. Its the sort of DVD you put on when guests over stay their welcome and you want them to go home

    This is an odd Doctor Who story because it should be excellent, but falls far short.

    The cast are stunning, even Ken Dodd puts in a interesting performance. Don Henderson plays a superbly menacing villain, and Rachel Griffiths should probably have been kept on as a companion.

    Stubby Kaye, Hugh Lloyd and many others make this a visually entertaining tale.

    For some reason though, it fails to work. It should be a great romp, unfortunately the Bannermenr themselves are awful, the time travelling holidaymakers are pointless, and the production feels very flat. This is a surprise considering the era it is set in, the holiday camp location and Sylvester McCoy's slowly darkening Doctor should have made this a potential classic.
